MeltFlow-VAR 55 is the specialized computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software developed by Innovative Research, LLC for comprehensive simulation of the Vacuum Arc Remelting (VAR) process. It is used by specialty metals producers to model electromagnetic fields, fluid flow, heat transfer, solidification, and alloy element redistribution during the production of high-performance titanium alloys, superalloys, and specialty steels.
Why Choose MeltFlow-VAR 55?
The VAR process is complex and expensive to optimize through trial-and-error. MeltFlow-VAR provides a dedicated, efficient simulation environment that couples DC electromagnetics with multiphase flow, heat transfer, and solidification phenomena, enabling process refinement and scale-up with confidence.
